It is hard to be sad and cold when their songs are around us and in us. Kickball
brings songs that sound like the sort of tunes a slow moving bear might hum,
while collecting some breakfast berries, or the sort of sounds the wind might
make as it blows the slow bearÆs fur back against its song. Brother and sister
bears, this shit is heavy like mice whispering from our kitchen cupboard caves.
Most recently: The slow bear and whispering mice hearts started to beat it up
much faster and the Kickballs kicked out a dirt stomping dinosuar. This dinosaur
comes bearing gifts of rattle snake tail drums ticking like bombs that never
explode, guitars that sound like pebbles bouncing around in glass jars or the
chimes on my porch banging into each other during a storm, and the bass that
sounds like the abominable snow dude swinging a ginormous fish onto a pan pipe
made out of sewer pipes. If you pay attention, youÆll hear those quiet creatures
channeling the sounds of the sea, squeaking in chairs, abandoning drums to play
beats on their laps, banging around pieces of sheet metal in their backyard, and
the older children teaching the younger children about the ins and outs of
intercourse.
